In Yun City, they had just arrived when, shortly after, another group of people showed up.
From down the corridor, led respectfully by the hospital leadership, walked several young men and women.
This group's aura was distinctly different from the black-clad men of the Wanlong Hui. Each one was either wealthy or noble, with an extraordinary bearing.
Su Mansu could tell at a glance that these people were here for her boss, Liu Yutong. She immediately asked Yu Xin beside her, "Yu Xin, who are these people?"
It wasn't that she asked too many questions, but she needed to get up to speed quickly. As the boss's primary assistant, she definitely had to familiarize herself with the people in the boss's circle. It would help her prioritize when reporting work and scheduling.
"They are members of the Yunshan Hui," Yu Xin said.
"Yunshan Hui?"
Su Mansu looked puzzled, wondering if this was yet another social organization. But judging by this group's demeanor, it didn't seem like it.
Yu Xin then briefly explained the identities of the newcomers.
After hearing Yu Xin's introduction, Su Mansu was surprised once more.
Without exception, these people were all top-tier second-generation heirs from Greater Nan City and even surrounding provinces.
She also learned what the Yunshan Hui truly was: a private, immensely influential top-tier circle with extremely high entry barriers, accessible only to those with the most elite backgrounds.
And at this moment, they had gathered here for one person only.
That's right, her boss, Liu Yutong!
She was the universally acknowledged core and soul of this top-tier circle, the Yunshan Hui, their default big sister.
"Sister Yutong, are you alright? We came as soon as we got the news."
"Sister Yutong, who was the fool who provoked you? We'll make sure he regrets it!"
"......"
Liu Yutong didn't hide it either. "It was Master Jiu's people."
"Master Jiu?"
"Who's that?"
"Gu Yebai, as a local, you should know, right?"
To everyone's surprise, Gu Yebai also shook his head. "Don't know him, though it sounds somewhat familiar."
Given their status, it was normal they wouldn't pay attention to those so-called 'big brothers' of the underworld.
Yun Cheng was exasperated by these second-generation heirs. "Last time when you were surrounded by over a hundred people, those were also Master Jiu's men."
As soon as Yun Cheng said this, Gu Yebai and the others were stunned for a moment before erupting in anger. "What? It's the same group as last time?!"
"How dare they!"
"Do they really think our Yunshan Hui is made of clay, that any stray cat or dog can come and take a swipe?!"
"Once is an accident, twice is a deliberate provocation! These scum really don't know how to write the word 'death'!"
"......"
At this moment, the members of the Yunshan Hui stopped worrying about whether it was beneath them. Their only thought was to make Master Jiu pay the price for his stupidity!
Just as Gu Yebai was about to make a call to arrange manpower to deal with the other side, Liu Yutong stopped him.
"Not so fast. Dealing with this sort of person doesn't require you all to take action. Besides, if we just make him serve some time, it would be letting him off too easy."
"Then, Sister Yutong, what do you plan to do?"
Liu Yutong quietly explained her plan to them.
Gu Yebai and the others' eyes immediately lit up. "Then we'll follow Sister Yutong's plan."
.............
That night.
At one of Greater Nan City's most high-end five-star hotels, the doors to the largest banquet hall were tightly shut, guarded by men in black outside.
After getting out of the car, Liu Yutong headed straight for the banquet hall.
Su Mansu, Yu Xin, and others followed behind her.
The shocks of the day had been considerable for her. From street fights to men in black, to an elite circle of power and privilege... in just one day, she had witnessed the immense influence her new boss wielded.
If she hadn't experienced so much today, she probably wouldn't have believed, even if beaten to death, that a nineteen-year-old girl could achieve all this from scratch.
"Yu Xin, I still don't quite understand. Mr. Yun Cheng said earlier that our company has over thirteen hundred core members. What exactly do they all do? If they're all management, that ratio is way too exaggerated, and it doesn't seem like a healthy proportion either."
"They're indeed not management."
Yu Xin said mysteriously, "Our company is indeed just a tiny bit different from others."
Su Mansu: "Just a tiny bit different?"
Yu Xin: "Let me put it this way: your understanding of 'core members' is completely different from what 'core members' mean in our Wanlong Hui."
"You'll understand in a moment," she said deliberately, keeping Su Mansu in suspense.
Even though Su Mansu was mentally prepared, the moment the banquet hall doors were pushed open, she was still stunned by the scene before her.
Her mind went completely blank.
The banquet hall was packed with a vast sea of people, all dressed in identical black suits, with a silver dragon emblem embroidered on their chests.
The moment Liu Yutong stepped into the banquet hall, everyone stood up in unison, bowing and greeting her with lowered heads.
"Eldest Miss!"
"Eldest Miss!"
The chorus of voices was incredibly loud, making Su Mansu's eardrums buzz and her heart pound uncontrollably.
This scene was a hundred times more shocking than any gangster movie she had ever seen!
Yu Xin, long accustomed to such scenes, gently nudged Su Mansu, who had completely frozen. "See, Sister Mansu, these are about half of the core members of our Wanlong Hui."
"Now do you feel the weight of the term 'core members'?"
Su Mansu didn't know how to reply to Yu Xin anymore. She certainly felt it, but her overwhelming feeling could be summed up in a few words: "I'm in deep now!"
